The Future of Mad Gringo

Mad Gringo is proud to report that we will be relocating our business and will be hiring a manager for our US operations.

In mid-March, an underwater volcano erupted near the country of Tonga in the South Pacific (see National Geographic coverage). In a Twitter post, we claimed the resultant island for Mad Gringo,* and we have since been contacted by Prime Minister Feleti Sevele to make our claim legal. Since we were the first group to make a public claim on the island, international law awards us ownership and governing powers over the new island.

In an effort to maintain control over the new land and reduce operating costs, Mad Greg and Mad Brian are moving their families and key employees to Tonga while we construct a new facility for headquarters. As a result, we need to hire a manager for our operations in the United States. Anyone interested should submit a resume and salary requirements to Mad Brian. All qualified applicants will be contacted and interviewed.

On behalf of all the Mad Gringo employees, I look forward to this new chapter of our business. We are excited to make this move and believe that it will allow us to bring you a better Mad Gringo experience.
